Two jobs. Two machines.

The RL3500S and RL5000S are manufactured in Markham and Belleville, Ontario. For other RackLift equipment, ask BIAC in Markham.

Watch

The RL5000 move.

A technician rolls a fully loaded cabinet on the RL5000 — one operator, equipment still in the rack. One operator. Fully loaded.

Method

A loaded cabinet, off the tiles, in minutes.

  1. 01

    Set

    Slide a unit under each end. Strap. The load stays in the cabinet, power supplies included.

  2. 02

    Raise

    Crank or hit the up switch. 33 cm (13″) of lift, synchronized. Auto-lock when you let go.

  3. 03

    Roll

    Eight casters share the weight across the raised floor. One technician. A standard doorway.

Manufactured in Markham and Belleville. Quoted from Markham.

The RL3500S and RL5000S are manufactured in Markham and Belleville, Ontario. Frames are 704 aluminum, finished in gunmetal grey hammertone — light enough for one technician, stiff enough for a live 2,268 kg (5,000 lb) cabinet. BIAC Broadband Internet Alliance Corporation sells and quotes Canada from Markham.

Built for the aisle, not the warehouse.

All applications

Hyperscale & colo

Live cabinets, containment aisles, and raised floors that punish the wrong tool. Sized for two-tile aisles. Non-marking on tiles.

Enterprise & government halls

One technician lands a populated rack without a four-person crew. Power supplies stay in the cabinet.

CRAC, UPS & cooling

If it sits on a raised floor and weighs thousands of kilograms, we lift it. Manual or battery-electric. 2,268 kg (5,000 lb).

Container & modular PODs

Low doorways. Tight turns. The compact footprint clears a standard door and spins in a two-tile aisle.

Labour & safety

Four technicians and a day. Or one, and a lift.

Using people to lift cabinets is the expensive part. A four-person crew, a stripped rack, and a warehouse stacker in a two-tile aisle is the other solution. It is the wrong one.

Annual labour

$65,280 CAD

Four-person crew

Annual labour

$6,120 CAD

One technician + RackLift

The difference

$59,160 CAD

Labour avoided

Does not include injury cost, delayed turn-ups, or damaged hardware — the expensive part.

People are not a lift

Using people to lift devices and cabinets creates unnecessary risk of injury and equipment damage. One operator. The load stays in the rack.

Warehouse stackers fail the aisle

General-purpose stackers mark tiles, miss insertion height, and cannot spin in a two-tile aisle. These units were specified for live halls.

No four-person circus

The old method pulls every server, then four technicians muscle the empty cabinet. An RL3500S or RL5000S relocates it fully loaded.

The machine holds the load

Ball-screw or auto-lock battery winch. The brake sets when you let go. Non-marking casters spread 2,268 kg (5,000 lb) across the raised floor.
